    Isn’t he much more likely to be working up to a major strike on Venezuela? They seem to be wanting a bigger distraction and military industrial complex money maker.

      They will probably attack Venezuela, but that’s not a reason to call all the generals from around the world back to the US. There is almost NEVER any reason to pull them all back. In fact, you’re leaving yourself extremely vulnerable if you do.

      How many wars has the US fought in? Many of them have been bigger than an attack on Venezuela would be. Pulling all the generals into one room has NEVER been done. Not once, even for World War 2.

      This is not about starting a single conflict. This probably isn’t even about starting a world conflict. This is about something else entirely.

      Wars do not distract Americans. They are numb to wars. They are numb to US imperialism and war crimes. Gaza has proven that.
